I am new to outlook and have been asked to send a form out to some
customers for a short survey. I have worked out how to Design a form
(albeit a few bits not quite right yet) and have sent my self a test of
the form. I have then tried to reply but it does not seem to carry the
form through - however if I say forward it does. I simply want them
to open up the form fill in the questions and then hit send and it come
back to me. Am I missing something??

Also everytime I open/send/receive the form it is saying "This form
contains an Active X control which may harm my computer do I want to
load it" I keep saying yes but cannot really send this out if
customers are going to get this message each time.

Third and final - does it matter what other mail system people have if
I have done this in an Outlook form?

Thanks very much..

Outlook is not the right tool for that task. Your third question is the critical one: Outlook forms work only for Outlook recipients (and even then, it would take a lot of work -- on the external recipients' part).
